| The Kushiro Marsh is a large wetland in the Kushiro Plain of Hokkaido. The Kushiro Marsh has an area of about 26,000 ha, which is very large, and is large enough to fit in the 23 wards of Tokyo. In 1980, it was also a registered wetland under the Ramsar Convention. Kushiro Marsh, which is also a national park, is home to many precious wildlife, and the most famous of these is the Japanese crane, which has been designated as a national special natural monument. Unfortunately, it is often found in the inner part of the moor, and although it is rare to see it, the Japanese crane, which is also a symbol of Kushiro, is worth visiting. Currently, Kushiro Marsh is mostly off limits from the perspective of protecting valuable marshes and living things. Under such circumstances, there are only a limited number of ways to see Kushiro Wetland. The first is the view from the train window from the JR Semmo Main Line and the Hosooka Observatory after getting off at Kushiro Shitsugen Station. Or drive to several observatories around Kushiro Wetland. The second method is to use a canoe from Lake Toro to tour from the Kushiro River. Please enjoy the scenery like Africa instead of Japan. |
